Lowball Offers Are Flooding The GTA — Here's What's Actually "Fair" | EP393
About this episode
Ariel and Adrian discuss the implications of lowball offers in the GTA real estate market and what constitutes a fair deal.
Is a 10% under-asking offer a smart play or an insult? In this episode, Ariel and Adrian break down what actually makes a real estate deal "fair" — and why the lowball offers flooding the GTA right now are getting rejected even in a buyer's market. Whether you're about to make an offer or weighing one on your own home, this is the negotiation reality check both sides need.They get into why "fair" is a range (not a number), how an agent's reputation can swing a deal, a real negotiation where a seller's games cost them, and a hard lesson for sellers sitting on a fair offer hoping for better.
